| Dire Straits – Lady Writer Lyrics

I think the fall from grace is insinuating the time when he fell in love with his former girl friend, who looked like the lady writer on the TV, but was nothing like her. The lady writer had all the brains and the beauty. And that picture did not fit with the former girlfriend who just looked like the lady writer, but that's where the similarities ended. Seeing the lady writer on the TV reminded him of the horrible time he had when was with the former girlfriend at a different time and a different place. So he recalls his fall from grace. |

This is a great song! One must be tone deaf to compare this song with the Sultans of Swing and benchmarking against that! They are two different songs, two different creations.
I like the way some folks have interpreted the part "I recall my fall from grace". But I still keep wondering did he insinuate to a "sin" he committed; if so what is the sin he is referring to? Or did he just mean that he had lost a commanding position? |

I think the line "My mind is racing, but my body's in the leash..." would have expressed the conflicts better. By changing the word "lead", as used by the artists, to "leash" would have expressed the tug of war between various conflicting states of mind and body. |
